Pluspunten

The people are more than qualified, and very friendly. With few exceptions, everyone from entry-level to upper-management gets along great which creates a very productive atmosphere. With all the experience in-house, learning possibilities are rampant. For a very long time, Reading was the center of the WP power world, but the company has grown tremendously over the last decade. Those changes have drawbacks, but also create endless opportunities for the qualified and open-minded employee.

Minpunten

Location, location, location. If you're looking for the variety, competition and networking available in a large city, you won't find it in Reading. Many employees are "lifers" from the area, but they do manage to draw some fresh blood from the surrounding satellite universities and Philadelphia (although not always for long). Overall the quality of the people offsets the lack of quality in the area. Like most large companies, WP is a little top-heavy these days.

Pluspunten

Massive Project Scale: Worley handles multibillion dollar capital projects. If you want exposure to massive EPC work, this is the place. You get to lead complex, large scale infrastructure and energy developments that actually move the needle globally. Technical Bench Strength: As a PM, you are only as good as your technical team. Worley has a incredibly deep roster of subject matter experts across civil, structural, mechanical, and piping disciplines. You will have serious engineering talent backing up your project delivery. The Energy Pivot: They are heavily transitioning toward sustainability and green energy infrastructure. It is a fantastic place to build your resume in sustainable engineering while still utilizing traditional oil and gas, offshore, or pipeline expertise. Global Mobility: Because they operate worldwide, there is excellent opportunity to travel or relocate for different assignments if that is something you want to pursue. Structured Delivery Systems: They have highly mature stage gate delivery processes. You are never flying blind; they have the rigorous systems in place to manage risk, procurement, environmental compliance, and contract administration effectively.

Minpunten

The Project Cycle Risk: Because Worley operates as a massive EPC firm, your job security is often directly tied to your current billable project. When a large scale project winds down, you need to have your next landing spot already lined up. If the company pipeline is dry, you can end up on the bench, and prolonged bench time always carries the risk of layoffs. The Constant Hustle for the Next Win: To avoid that bench time and ensure seamless work for their teams when a project ends, project managers and leadership have to be incredibly aggressive with proposals and bidding. It creates a high pressure environment where you are often executing your current massive project while simultaneously burning the midnight oil to win the next contract just to keep your engineers and staff utilized.
